HOW TO PREPARE LEMON HERB GARLIC BUTTER SHRIMP
Begin by melting some butter, then incorporate minced garlic and raw, deveined shrimp. Season the shrimp with salt, pepper, and sweet paprika; cook for 2 minutes on each side. As the shrimp begin to turn pink, add butter, lemon juice, and herbs; I prefer fresh thyme or fresh basil and parsley, but feel free to use any fresh herbs you enjoy. Once the shrimp are fully pink, take them off the heat. DO NOT overcook them. If they are cooked for too long, they will become rubbery, which is certainly undesirable. In total, shrimp require only 4 to 5 minutes to cook.
Taste for seasoning and make adjustments as needed. I ALWAYS add extra lemon juice. It’s never sufficient. 🤷♀️
Therefore, with the finest flavors and the quickest preparation time, Lemon Herb Garlic Butter Shrimp is a simple recipe that comes together in very little time and can be served over anything. Or, even on its own! Just you, the skillet with shrimp, and a fork. Enjoy your meal. 🍤
Additionally, it is LOW CARB and Keto-Friendly, allowing you to indulge in the entire dish. 😉
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO COOK RAW SHRIMP?
Shrimp requires only 4 to 5 minutes to be cooked in a skillet. Cook the shrimp until it turns completely pink and opaque, ensuring that there are no remaining grey or bluish areas.
